| | Dave Matthews Band Gorge CD Dave Matthews Band Discography of CDs
Though the Dave Matthews Band has released several live albums, THE GORGE stands out from the pack due to its unique recording environment. The outdoor venue in question is carved out of the basalt cliffs adjacent to Oregon's Columbia River Gorge, a canyon in the Cascade mountain range. The space is renowned both for its scenic splendor and natural acoustic properties. As such, the sound quality here is warmer and clearer than a typical concert recording, and the ensemble seems inspired to deliver a top-notch performance. As on the group's other live outings, several tracks here are much longer than their studio counterparts. Particular beneficiaries of this treatment include the baritone sax-driven rocker "Two Step" and the funky world-beat exploration "Lie in Our Graves." In addition to the two audio discs, the set also includes a DVD that presents live footage, videos, and a documentary.
Dave Matthews Band's The Gorge captures highlights from the band's legendary 2002 three-night stand at one of the most magnificent venues in the country. The Gorge features over 3 hours of music and video - recorded in stereo and 5.1 audio and shot with over 20 cameras in Hi Def video. Extra DVD features include the documentary short "A Look Inside The Gorge", "The Making Of The Grace Is Gone Video," The Grace Is Gone video, and multi-angle coverage of Ants Marching & What You Say.
This version of the CD & DVD is packaged in an amaray case.

Purchase Gorge CD To buy, Click on price to add to cart | Tom Petty Echo CD (1999)
Gorge album
$11.39 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Tom Petty (vocals, guitar, harmonica); Mike Campbell (vocals, guitar, bass); Benmont Tench (piano, electric pianos, organ, Chamberlin, Clavinet); Howie Epstein (bass, background vocals).
ECHO was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Rock Album. "Room At The Top" was nominated for the 2000 Grammy Award for Best Rock Song.
In his 24th year of recording, Tom Petty shows you can age gracefully in a medium known for its rampant ageism. ECHO finds Petty putting together a veiled confessional that refers indirectly to a recent separation from his wife. As always, Heartbreakers Mike Campbell (who helped out with production), Howie Epstein, and Ben Tench provide a solid musical bed for songs largely populated by female protagonists. "Free Girl Now" sounds an insistent message of liberation, "Lonesome" finds Petty using a forlorn twang to bid a heartfelt farewell to a lover who then goes on the road in search of adventure in "Swingin'" as ...

Gorge CD music
$5.49 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Tom Petty (vocals, guitar); Mike Campbell (guitar); Benmont Tench (keyboards); Howie Epstein (bass); Stan Lynch (drums).
LET ME UP was seen as Petty's attempt to step away from the elaborate neo-psychedelic artifice of the ambitious SOUTHERN ACCENTS and get to back to straight-ahead rock & roll, but in fact, it's probably just the record he happened to feel like making at the time. That said, rock & roll doesn't get more ...
| | Tom Petty Full Moon Fever CD (1989)
Gorge music CDs
$8.05 There is a "special message" between tracks 5 and 6 which is found exclusively on the CD.
This album is just damn good fun--a great collection of easy-going rock songs, crafted not to change the world, but certainly to make it just a little brighter. Petty's first solo project (without the Heartbreakers), FULL MOON FEVER shares the goodtime feel of the Traveling Wilburys' contemporary "Handle With Care." This is not altogether surprising; Jeff Lynne co-produced and George Harrison and Roy Orbison guest. The only non-Petty composition is a version of Gene Clark's "Feel A Whole Lot Better," while "Zombie Zoo," a bewildered parent's diatribe on the kids of today, comes perilously close to social commentary.
Recorded in Mike Campbell's Garage, Los Angeles, California.

This is where Petty's Dylan influence begins to rear its head. He made his name as an all-American, Byrds-inspired rock & roller, but on HARD PROMISES Petty began to explore a more reflective style, leaning on the softer side ...

Gorge CD music
$17.09 Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers: Tom Petty (vocals, guitar, ukelele, piano, bass); Scott Thurston (guitar, lap steel guitar, ukelele); Mike Campbell (guitar, bass); Benmont Tench (piano, organ, keyboards); Ron Blair (bass); Steve Ferrone (drums).
Additional personnel includes: Lenny Castro (percussion); Lindsey Buckingham (background vocals).
Contains an Enhanced CD which contains regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files, as well as a bonus DVD.
Money and its corrupting effects on rock music are the subject matter on much of THE LAST DJ, the umpteenth Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers album since the band's eponymous 1976 debut. The singer is shocked--shocked!--to find just how insidious the green stuff's effects are on the music business. On hearing this, a listener might reasonably wonder if Tom Petty has spent the last 30 years under a proverbial rock, but being a Tom Petty album, of course, tunes and songcraft are beyond reproach and much may be forgiven.
Both songwriter and listeners ...
| | Todd Rundgren Todd CD (1974)
Gorge music CDs
$7.59 Keyboards dominate the arrangements, with Rundgren, longtime cohort Mark "Moogy" Klingman, and session-man Ralph Schuckett all contributing piano, organ, and vintage '70s-style clavinet. The songs themselves are quirkier and more exploratory than earlier efforts, with the progressive and fusion influences that would dominate Rundgren's forthcoming band Utopia rearing their heads. Yet, at its best, TODD still comes across as a pop album, with soulful gems like "I Think You Know" and snarling rockers like "Heavy Metal Kids" predominating. Listeners looking for more ear-pleasing pop on the order of SOMETHING/ANYTHING? may be surprised by the musical tangents here, but ...

Gorge album
$13.15 “An innovator with a complex of tradition, romanticist expressing himself in the contemporary idiom, poet of piano – this was Krzysztof Komeda, one of those musicians who have widened the essence of jazz”*. In his short life (until untimely death, after a tragic accident in Hollywood at the age of 38), Krzysztof Komeda (1931-1969) wrote music for more than 60 films, including classics of the Polish cinema by the Academy Award winners Roman Polanski and Andrzej Wajda. It was Polanski who gave Komeda his first commission in 1957, and used his music in almost all of his films over the next decade; inviting him to Hollywood in 1967 to score his American film debut, “Rosemary’s Baby.” According to Polanski himself, the popular and critical success of “Rosemary’s Baby” owed much to Komeda’s empathy and creative imagination. Even though Komeda’s film scores quite often made use of Jazz and improvisation, it is the music he wrote to perform and record as a pianist with his own jazz groups, especially 1965 recording of “Astigmatic,” that helped to develop a uniquely European (in structure and lyrical content, especially) style in jazz composition. Their musical roots in Poland, founders of KOMEDA PROJECT - pianist ANDRZEJ WINNICKI and saxophonist KRZYSZTOF MEDYNA toured Europe extensively during the 1980's with their original jazz group Breakwater. The group was featured at European jazz festivals, won an international jazz competition (best group and best instrumentalist - Krzysztof Medyna), and was broadcast on television and radio. Later, Medyna also performed and recorded as a member of the group In/Formation, frequently touring side by side (on a double bill) with ECM recording artist, trumpeter Tomasz Stanko who worked on all of Krzysztof Komeda’s Polish soundtracks from 1964 onwards and was the composer’s closest musical associate and band member from 1963 until 1968. In the United States, Winnicki and Medyna revived their original group during the 90’s under the name Electric Breakwater. Electric Breakwater’s ...
